NEW YORK, April 21.-Capt. J. B.
Cogrhlan and his officers of the United
States cruiser Raleigh were entertained
Ht the Union League club tonight.
Capt. Cog-Man was called upon to
speak. lie accepted and before conclud
ing told this story of his admiral:
"An offi.-er of our friend, Admiral yon
Diedrich came down one day to make
complaint, It was my pleasure to step
out on the quarterdeck just as he came
aboard. It was partly by accident and
partly by design. I heard him tell the ad
miral about his complaint and I heard
the admiral reply:
'Tell your admiral those ships of his
must stop when I say so. I wish to
mike the blockade of this harbor com
plete.'
"The German officer replied: 'But we
fly the flagJ
"The reply of the admiral was just
like Dewey. He said:
" 'Those Hags can be bought at a half
v dollar a yard, anywhere.'
"There was no fun in that expression of
the admiral. He told the officer that any
one could fly a German flag, and that a
whole Spanish .fleet might come up on
him with German flags up. Then he drew
back and stroked his mustache. He has
a great habit of stroking his mustache
when he gets mad. He said:
" 'Tell your admiral I am blockading
Now not* carefully what I say, and
lei! your admiral that I say it. I have
been making this blockade as easy for
• everybody as I could, but I am getting
tired of the puerile work here.' It has
been of such a character that a man
would not notice it although children
might figftt over it, but the time has come
when it must stop. Tell your admiral that
the slightest infraction of any rule will
meanTbut one thing. That will be war. It
will h.- s-, accepted aad resented Imme
diately, if your people are ready for
war with the United States they can have
it at any -time.' "

great battle that resulted in the destruc

discovered yesterduy about tHree miles
west of Mono castle in eight fathoms of
water. It was found by div.ers from the
Yankton, who made a thorough inspec

side, with no indications of having been
struck by a heavy shell, as was origin

badly stove and literally riddled with six

be a disappointment to every lover of
justice and every friend of good govern
ment throughout the United States. It
serves to emphasize the difficulty of con
victing potent political defendants charg
ed with crime, no matter how clear, con
vincing and overwhelming the evidence
may be. The story of the corrupt use
and speculation in public money in Penn
syl\ania is an old one, and has been a
matter of notorious accusation against a
long line of state treasurers and political
bosses for many years. Mr. Quay him
self has been again and again accused of
participation in treasury Jobbing by the
newspapers of this and other states, with
circumstantial detail. Heretofore, how
ever, the basis for these accusations
largely consisted of oral testimony and
of allegations by political opponents. The
case which terminated today, unlike pre
vious accusations, was founded exclu
sively upon documentary proof in his own
handwriting and that of his friends and
, confederates. The evidence of his guilt
did not depend upon the varacity of any
mun or men, but was supported exclu
sively by his own letter, and by written
entries and statements recorded by his
trusted friends and supporters. From
the day the prosecution against him was
instituted until the verdict was recorded
he has sought by every device to delay
and obstruct the efforts of the common
walth's officers to produce the written
evidence of his misdoing and to bring
him to trial for his offense.
"This ls a new chapter of shame for
Pennsylvania, a record of failure in tha
administration of justice that will do
much to encourage corruptionists and
public plunderers generally throughout
the country. The first .shout of deliant
exultation over his acquittal proceeded
from the governor of the commonwealth,
who has promptly appointed him a Unit
ed States senator, without authority, in
violation of law, and in defiance of the
will of the people as expressed in the
votes In the legislature. It is fitting in
every respect that the keystone built up
by Quay politicians should be in the gov
ernor's chair.
"Quay, has got his technical verdict,
but the trial of corruptionists and public
plunderers will still go on."
United States Senator Boies Penrose
said:
"The appointment of Senator Quay by
the governor is the logical result of the
situation. Mr. Quay's leadership in the
Republican party and his candidacy for
re-election as senator were made issues
in the gubernatorial campaign of last
fall by the Democratic party, and that
faction of the Republican party which, on
election day, generally turned in for the
Democratic candidate.
"The Republican candidate for gov
ernor, after a campaign of unparalleled
misrepresentation and villification, was
elected by a great plurality, and Mr.
Quay's candidacy— this issue having been
forced by the opposition— was indirectly
sustained by the vote of the people.
"The legislature convened, and a cau
cus of the Republican members was held,
according to usage, and proceeded to
nominate a senator. Up to a short time
before the meeting of the caucus* Mr.
Quay was certain of a large majority
in that body and had personal assur
ances that nearly all Republican mem
bers would attend and abide by its de
cision. At the last moment a minority
of less than one-third refused to attend,
and the Republican nominee of the cau
cus, although receiving over two-thirds
of his party vote, failed to receive a ma
jority of all members of the legislature,
as required by the act of congress. The
majority l'efused to yield to the dictation
of the majority, and a failure to elect a
senator was the result.
"In this contest Mr. Quay really won
'one of the greatest victories of his long
political career. The regular Republi
cans in the legislature, representing the
Pennsylvania, fought to sustain the
principle of majority rule in the party,
and in that contention was successful. A
notable precedent was created, and It
wil be many years before a similar at
tempt is made by the minority to hold
up the will of the majority in the elec
tion of a senator in this state. Those
members of the legislature who stood
so steadfastly for principle are entitled
to great praise, and their course has
been and will be vindicated by the sen
timent of the Republican party of the
state."

EXPERIENCES OF A CHICAGO
NEWSBOY IN THE ALASKAN
GOLD FIELDS
Papers Month* Old Sold for $1.50
Each Enterprising- Youth Made
a Fortune Spent Money Lav
ishly.
An odd character drifted into the city
yesterday In the person of John Carmody,
a boy of eighteen years old who ls well
known on the Pacific coast as the
"Klondike Newsboy." He had come
from Chicago, stealing his way on pas
senger trains, and is on his way back
to Alaska in search of gold and excite
ment. He is a slim, pale-faced boy and
his countenance bears marks of many
experiences with and in the world, ln
spite of his lack of years. He told his
own story in a very interesting manner
and produced credentials signed by Capt.
C. G. Clybouradi, captain of the Seattle
port St. Michael steamer Caronne, and
certified to by Joaquin Miller, bearing
date of Junf^ 4, 1898.
"When I was in the city last, on my re
turn from the Klondike," said he, "I
stopped at the Ryan hotel and had $1,900
In gold dust with which to pay my way.
This was last summer, and now I am
here again. This time I am stopping at
a cheap lodging house and haven't got
a cent except a little money that I have
turned in one way and another.
"I went to Alaska last spring as a
stowaway on the Caronne. I took with
me 1,200 copies of Chicago, St. Paul, Mil
waukee, Detroit and New York papers,
which I bought before leaving, and when
I got to St. Michaels I packed them to
Summit and then to Circle City. I had
great luck and sold every sheet that I
had brought with me for $1.50 each.
When the papers were gone, I blacked
boots for fifty cents a shine and turned
a good deal of money. Then I worked
for a while at $12 a. day in a restaurant
In Dawson;- That was too hard .for me
and I had; to quit as the day's work was
sixteen hours long and no rest between
times. Everybody paid ln dust and
money was as easy as air.
"In Dawson, the same conditions pre
vailed, but it was not nearly so pleasant.
The miners are all jolly good fellows, and
used me in the kindest manner, but Daw
son was filled with toughs and gamblers
who went there to do the miners, and
fights and shooting scrapes were of daily
occurrence. Everybody carried a gun
and there was a saloon called "Back the
Blood," which was hell on earth. I
peddled oranges there for a dollar each.
Girls are in demand. A restaurant girl
could earn $50 a month without trouble,
and all kinds of labor was at a premium.
"When I got to Seatt'e a friend of
mine will stake me to enough to pay for
a stock of papers and then I will repeat
the process. When I came out last year
I had $2,600. but I spent $700 in Seattle
before coming on east. I shall beat my
way and earn enough to live on by black
ing boots or peddling, or selling papers.
I'll get along all right.
•Tve got a scheme that's a good one to
win out on. I'm going to buy 200 pounds
of popcorn in Seattle and sell it In Daw
son at 25 cents a sack. Last year there
was a great demand for it. though there
was very little to be had."

WHAT GERMAN? WANTED.
Some War Secrets Are Canting to the

LONDON. April 22.-*Rh e Daily Chron
icle says this morning: fjs 5
"We are informed that during the His
r,ano- American war Germany proposed
to the Ln.ted States the ees.slbn of a coal
ing station in the Philippines in the event
of annexation, together with an exchange
ot commercial privileges. The United
States replied that the proposal was pre
mature, especially In view of the uncer
tainty as to the way the public would
regard the request. Later on Germany
asked the I'nited States not to annex the
Caroline islands, claiming the first right
to them, and renewing her request for a
coaling station in the Philippines in ex
change for the islands in the MarshaH
and Brown croups east of ta* Carolines."
STALLED IN MONTANA
THREE HUNDRED PASSENGERS
WHO WERE DELAYED REACH
ST. PAIL
WERE STOPPED BY THE FLOODS
Some of Them. Were at Havre for a
"Week: Were Furnished Meals
and AH Possible Comforts hy the '
Railroad Counpany The Train
Came in ln Three Sections
What One of the Passengers Says.
More than 300 Great Northern passen
gers, who were blockaded en route East
from the coast by the floods '.n Montana,
arrived in St. Paul during the early hours
of yesterday morning. All were thankful
that there enforced detention at the lit
tle town of Havre, Mont., where the
ravages of the flood made further travel
from the West impossible, was at an end.
Everything possible for the comfort of
the passengers was done by the railroad,
but such numbers of travelers, all anxious
to reach their different destinations, rath
er interfered with the pleasure of such a
gathering under other conditions.
The special trains came in a section at
a time, the first section pulling into the
union depot at 3:35 a. m. Twenty minutes
later the second section arrived, and by
5 o'clock the last section was under the
sheds. By the arrival of the specials it
was believed that the blockade had been
finally raised. A spur track is said to
either have been built or is in process of
construction about the flooded district in
Montana so that from now on, notwith
standing the water, Great Northern
trains, it is reported, will make the
through overland trip on time.
Some of the belated passengers were
BRIGHT'S DISEASE CURED.
AFTER MANY TREATMENTS HAD
FAILED TO GIVE RELIEF
A Remedy Waa at Last Discovered
and the Malady Wan Eradicated—
One of Many Cases in Wisconsin.
ASHLAND, Wis., April 21. -John L.
Boquest, engineer at the Sulphite Fibre
Co.'s plant, was being hurried rapidly
to the grave by Bright's Disease, when a
good friend advised him to use Dodd's
Kidney Pills. The sick man had previous
ly used many different medicines, electric
belts, etc., but could get no relief. He,
however, decided to heed his friend's ad
vice, and as a result he is today a well
man. He says:
"My eyes felt heavy, my head and
back ached, my urine was very dark in
color, and I was almost a wreck. After
using two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills
I was cured. My aches have left me,
my eyesight is again good, and I feel
like a new man."
Bright's Disease can be cured only by
the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills. This has
been demonstrated in thqusands of cases.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are sold by drug
gists at 50 cents a box or six boxes for
$2.50.i Sent by mail on receipt of price
by Dodd's Medietas Co., Buffalo, N. Y.
prisoners at Havre for eleven days, while
others, starting from the coast later
were in the blockade from several days to
a week. During the delay the travelers
were taken care of by the railroad ln
the most comfortable manner possible,
under the circumstances. Most of them
made their temporary homes in the sleep
ers and coaches, and were supplied with
meals on the cars. Those who had sleep
ing berths fared comparatively well, but
owing to the crowded rtains all could not
be thus provided for, and passengers say
that some had to be content with ac
commodation in the day coatches. The
feeding of the passengers was, owing to
their numbers, accomplished with some
difficulty, and the dining car crews were
a busy lot. Almost throughout each day
the dining cars were continuously filled.
As soon as one lot of passengers had
been satisfied another lot filed in. In this
manner it was quite like one long meal to
the car crew, inasmuch as by the time
the last consignment had eaten break
fast the first to have been served were
ready for dinner. On the whole, however,
everyone made the best of a bad bar
gain, and remained in general content
ment, cherishing the consolation that
would be theirs when once more on their
journey.
Among the passengers on the third .spe
cial to arrive was Miss Orley Harkins,
of Faribault, Minn., who accompanied
the remains of her sister, Mrs. Wilson,
from Seattle. Miss Harkins was delayed
at Havre for a week. The body of Mrs.
Wilson was taken care of in the baggage
car. The remains had been emblamed,
consequently did not suffer through the
delay. Miss Harkins was met here by
her brother, L. D. Harkins, yesterday
morning. With the remains of Mrs^-Wll
son, Miss Harkins and Mr. Harkins left
yesterday for Faribault. Another body
also arrived on the first special.
The majority of the passengers were
bound for points further east and many
of them remained on the trains until
hours when satisfying meals and the
comforts of a dining room could be had
at the hotels. Others, however, left the
coaches immediately upon their arrival. .
Most of the travelers left during the day..,
and last evening for the East.
The sudden arrival of so many passen
gers at "once caused a flurry at the union
depot baggage room and until late in the
day the employes were busy transfering
trunks, chests and sample cases. Five
big truck loads of baggage, each con
taining as many as twenty-live trunks,
stood ranged along the depot platform
at one time during the day. Everything
ln connection with the belated passengers
wri- straightened out by evening.
The two regular Great Northern trains
scheduled to leave this city for the coast
yesterday went out on time.

RECALLS AST OLD ASSIGNMENT.
Former Firm of St. Paul Confection,
era Take the Bankruptcy Act.
A petition in bankruptcy was filed this
week In Chicago by Howard Spaulding,
W. N. Cumbey and Hart Hawkins,
former partners of the firm of Cumbev,
Spaulding & Hawkins confectioners, at
St. Paul. The concern went into tlie
hands of an assignee in 1&%. The total
debts of the firm amount to $27,000 and
there are no assets.
The firm was originally Main & Cuin
bey, and occupied the location at 31 East
Third street, now used as a commission
house. During its existence, it was the
leading confectionery firm in the city and
did a heavy business. The senior partuer
retired from business and his interest
was taken by Hart Hawkins and Howard
Spaulding, two young Chicago men with
plenty of money and little business ex
perlence. W. N. Cumbey retained his In
terest and the establishment organized
under the firm name of Cumbey. Spauld-

ing & Hawkins. The younger partners
were men lacking proper business ex
perience and had extravagant tastes and
Ideas which soon plunged the firm into
debt. Business dropped off and an as
signment was finally made.
Improved Picnic Grounds at BnMse.ll
Beach, Chisago Lakes.
The St. Paul & Duluth Railroad will
spend considerable money in fixing up
their picnic grounds at Russell Beach for
this season's picnics. A new fleet of six
ty row boats and several sail boats will
be added to the present large equipment.
A small steamer will also ply between
the principal resorts on the lakes. A
large supply of ice has been put up and
picnics will be furnished ice free of
charge. The large dancing pavilion has
been repaired, and the bath houses, re
freshment stands, kitchen, etc., have been
renovated and put in shape for the com
ing summer, which promises to be the
best picnic season in years. Russell
Beach is extremely popular with picnic
committees, as it is the only grounds
whlch is free, and where all the refresh
ments and other privileges are given to
the picnickers themselves, and not held
by outside parties. General Passenger
Agent Stone, of the St. Paul & Duluth
Railroad, says the recent report in the
daily papers that picnics would be com
pelled to charter special trains for Rus
sell Beach and other resorts is not true,
but that the picnic rates this year are
cheaper than ever before, and more priv
ileges are extended to their picnic pa
trons than by any other railroad. For
est Lake, Bald Eagle and Mahtomed) am
also located on the St. Paul & Duluth
Railroad, and are favorite picnic resorts
wen patronized by the people of tlie Twin
Cities.
